manual/setjmp.texi: Clarify setcontext and signal handlers text
Calling setcontext from a signal handler can be done safely so it is sufficient to note that it is not recommended. Also mention in setcontext documentation that the behaviour of setcontext when restoring a context created by a call to a signal handler is unspecified. 2014-04-17 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org> * manual/setjmp.texi (System V contexts): Add note that calling setcontext on a context created by a call to a signal handler is undefined. Update text to note that setcontext from a signal handler is possible but not recommended.
